01
Same structure
Every candidate receives the same information categories and equivalent opportunities for documentation.
02
Sources first
We prioritize official documents, public records, direct statements, and reputable local journalism.
03
Neutrality is not false equivalence
We present relevant evidence whether it supports or undermines a claim. We do not balance a verified fact with an unsupported statement.
04
Advertising is separate
Sponsors do not buy coverage, ratings, editorial access, or preferential treatment.
